(Emerson) instructions.
If the temperature controller vents gas 

or a leak develops in the system, service 

to the unit may be required. Failure 

to correct trouble could result in a 

hazardous condition.
Installation, operation and maintenance 

procedures performed by unqualified 

personnel may result in improper 

adjustment and unsafe operation.

Introduction

Scope of the Manual

This manual provides instructions for installation, 

maintenance and parts information for the T61 Series 

pneumatic temperature controllers.

Product Description

The T61 Series Temperature Controller is ideal for 

wide ranging, fast changing loads on instantaneous 

heaters and other difficult process applications. The 

cascade principle, normally used only on instrument 

type regulators, is the basis for this design.
T61 Series, used with a properly selected A Series 

Pilot or Control Valve, continuously adjusts a 

pressure regulator to the required heater pressure. 

This action, coupled with the fast response of a 

bimetallic thermostat, gives exceptional results. 

Added convenience and economy results from the 

wide (200°F / 93°C) adjustable range and the low air 

consumption (0.35 cfm / 0.59 m

3

/h). These controllers 

have adjustable proportional band as well as over 

temperature protection.

Type T61:

 For applications where air control signal 

decreases as process temperature increases.
